Chapter 487 Breaking into the Temple of Gods
Another half month passed.
Zhang Chongxian's eyes were unfocused, and he seemed to be in a state of suspended animation.
He had no idea how long this state would last.
Suddenly.
The surrounding chaotic void and starry river revolved, and a dazzling purple-gold light illuminated the endless darkness.
Endless light appeared before my eyes.
However, Zhang Chongxian did not realize it immediately until he felt his back hit something.
A glimmer of light appeared in his eyes.
"Is this... the end?"
He subconsciously raised his hand to shield his eyes, as if he were afraid of the light he so desperately longed for.
It took him some time to gradually get used to it.
His pale skin slowly regained its color.
The Golden Scale Sword reappeared before him.
A feeling I haven't had in a long time.
boom!
A terrifying aura erupted from his body. At this moment, he felt that his sword intent had reached a new stage, but he did not know exactly what stage it had reached.
All I knew was that I had entered the realm of sword intent.
The clan's records on swordsmanship only go up to the intent of the sword; he doesn't know what goes beyond that.
hum-
Before he could even feel happy, he heard the distant humming of the main road.
Zhang Chongxian gazed into the distance.
Then a magnificent, imposing temple, entirely made of purple and gold, stood in the void.
Sword patterns swirled above the temple, its power overwhelming all the heavens.
Outside the temple gates stood a hundred Golden Core Sword Slaves standing silently.
Each of them wielded a longsword made of cold iron, wore armor, and exuded a chilling sword aura.
Their strength had all reached the peak of the Golden Core stage.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Chongxian was not surprised but rather delighted.
"A temple! It seems that the temple is where the opportunity lies!"
One hundred peak Golden Core cultivators!
Ha ha……
"Come and fight!"
Clang!
Zhang Chongxian was filled with fighting spirit, his eyes as resolute as steel.
We survived the most difficult days.
What is there to fear in battle!
I'd rather die inside the temple!
His body transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards the temple!
Sensing Zhang Chongxian's aura, the eyes of the hundred peak Golden Core sword slaves suddenly flashed with a blue light.
A mechanical voice rang out:
"Trespasser! Die!"
shhhhhh!
The hundred sword slaves charged straight at Zhang Chongxian.
"Haha, you've come at the right time!"
Today, let me fight to my heart's content!
For him, dying in battle was an honor, while being trapped and killed by the endless darkness was a disgrace!
Bang bang bang!
In just a moment, Zhang Chongxian clashed with the sword slave.
The golden sword in his hand shimmered with light and its movements were unpredictable. He moved back and forth among the hundred sword slaves.
Upon their first meeting, he discovered that the hundred sword slaves were working together with exceptional coordination.
His strength is in no way inferior to that of ordinary Golden Core peak cultivators in the outside world.
The only thing they lack is defensive and offensive capabilities beyond their own strength.
Moreover, very few possess sword intent, and none are as strong as his Annihilation Sword Intent.
If that's the case, then there's a possibility of winning.
However, just as he was about to use the talisman in his storage ring, he couldn't get it out no matter what he did.
Zhang Chongxian instantly realized something:
"Is this also part of the test?"
good!"
"Great Evolution Annihilation Slash!"
boom!
A long sword, dozens of feet long, with a golden blade shrouded in black sword intent, slashed fiercely towards the sword slave.
The sword slave at the very front was caught off guard and was cut in two.
Upon seeing this, the mechanical voice of the remaining sword slaves sounded again:
"Form ranks!"
In an instant, all the spiritual energy surged into a sword slave who possessed sword intent.
The sword slave released a black sword phantom that rushed towards the attacking blade.
The moment the explosion rang out, ninety-nine sword slaves surrounded Zhang Chongxian.
They launched a frenzied attack.
Zhang Chongxian brandished his sharp longsword and fought back fiercely, his fighting spirit at its peak.
But long swords still slashed at his body.
In just fifteen minutes, his clothes were torn, his flesh was torn open, and his body was covered in wounds.
puff!
Zhang Chongxian spat out a mouthful of foul blood.
Standing in the void.
He was breathing heavily, but there was no fear in his eyes.
"Cool!"
Looking at the remaining seventy-three sword slaves, Zhang Chongxian made a decision in an instant.
"Golden Core Origin! Ignite!"
He knew that it was impossible for him to kill all of these sword slaves with his own strength.
Only by burning oneself out completely can one have a glimmer of hope!
After burning his source energy, Zhang Chongxian's body once again unleashed a powerful aura.
Although this aura did not reach the Nascent Soul stage, it surpassed the peak of the Golden Core stage.
"kill!"
Gripping the Linjin Sword tightly, he charged towards the temple once more.
He could kill every ten steps, as if he were in an empty field.
With only thirty-six sword slaves remaining, Zhang Chongxian's golden core essence was about to be exhausted.
Its vitality was also rapidly waning.
"Essence and Blood! Ignite!"
……
"Lifespan! Ignite it!"
……
Pfft!
After beheading the last sword slave, Zhang Chongxian's body was on the verge of collapse.
Life vanished rapidly, and the soul was nearly extinguished.
There wasn't a single intact part of his body; he had transformed into a living, breathing person.
He lay face down on the ground and crawled toward the temple by instinct.
Blood was splattered all the way, but he crawled into the temple.
"Finally...we've arrived."
He was barely breathing and had no strength to lift his head.
Just as he caught his breath, his body was enveloped in a soft light.
Tiny specks of white light merged into the body.
The sword wounds on his body began to heal at this moment.
Just then, a majestic voice rang out from inside the hall:
"Congratulations, little one, for stepping into the Hall of Exorcism and into the land of my inheritance!"
"I have become the second person to undergo the inheritance test of the Heavenly Venerable of Destroying Evil."
As the sound faded, countless white lights rose from inside the hall and converged in the center of the hall.
Before long, a humanoid phantom, hundreds of feet tall and white-gold in color, condensed into a form.
Its specific appearance is unclear.
But one thing is for sure.
Very strong.
Zhang Chongxian dared not be negligent; even though he had almost been tortured to death by the other party earlier, he still had to bow:
"Junior Zhang Chongxian pays respects to the Heavenly Venerable Who Breaks Evil!"
The Celestial Venerable of Breaking Evil nodded slightly, "Your talent for cultivation is a bit lacking."
However, being able to advance one's own Nirvana Sword Intent to the second level—the transformation of intent into form—at the late stage of the Golden Core realm has already surpassed most cultivators.
But compared to me, he's still far behind.
"Transformation of intent into form?" Zhang Chongxian asked with a puzzled expression, clearly not caring about the last sentence of the Evil-Slaying Celestial Venerable.
She did not develop any admiration for him.
This made Po Xie Tianzun somewhat embarrassed.
Why is it a little different from what I imagined?
What about your admiration?
Where's your praise?
However, she quickly composed herself and looked at Zhang Chongxian's eyes, which were filled with a thirst for knowledge.
He began to explain:
"Very well, since you are so eager to learn, I will answer your question."
"Please enlighten me, Heavenly Venerable."
"Before I instruct you, I would like to hear about your understanding of the way of the sword."
